Qld maple?

Post by Fisherman » Mon May 27, 2019 12:07 pm

hi folks

Found some nice timber locally which I think is Qld maple. but when I cut it up and measured it ... It is only 460kg/M3.

It looks like Qld maple to me, but also seems very light? Have you come across maple that light before? Could it be something else?

Over the years I’ve had QLD Maple ranging from hard to so soft I didn’t feel comfortable using it.

I wouldn’t be surprised if you found some that light.
